Panel Launchers Retain Focus

[Matt Gagne]

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

I tried reopening bug #18361 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-panel/+bug/18361), but was told to instead open a new bug. So I have done so:

I seem to have a regression of bug 18361. Instead of dotted lines, I get the Gnome 'icon selected' orange highlight/box around my launchers.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Click on any panel launcher,

Result: Launcher, erm, launches, and an orange 'highlight' box placed on top of launcher icon indicating its selection.
Expected Result: Launcher launches and *without* leaving launcher highlighted!

ALTERNATE (more consistent) reproduction method:
1) Click and hold down button on panel launcher.
2) Move mouse off of launcher to blank panel space (i.e. grey space.)
3) Release mouse button.

Result: Orange 'highlight' box placed on top of launcher icon indicating its selection.

I can get rid of the box by clicking on any other panel item (including Applications/Places/System.) Please note that this occurs using *both* Compiz and Metacity.

Specifications:
HP Pavilion dv6000 laptop
Gnome Version: 2.26.1
Linux Kernel: 2.6.28-11-generic
gnome-panel 1:2.26.0-0ubuntu7 (jaunty)
I am running Jaunty with all current updates.
